    Seven people in one New York City apartment can make for crowded living, but for Helen and Ruth (a lesbian couple) who, along with their gay friend Peter, are expecting their first child it's not so bad. After all, three of their housemates are their imaginary children. But just to play it safe, the trio of adults decides it would be best to “get rid” of the make-believe kids. This deliciously dark comedy from the Pulitzer prize winning playwright of How I Learned to Drive and The Baltimore Waltz is drenched in whimsy and hemlock.

        This is the funniest show I have seen in years. Annamarie MacLeod and Katie Anderson give incredible, rich performances, and I've been laughing for days thinking about MacLeod's wild scene when her imaginary characters war with each other over a peanut butter sandwich. Matthew Lowe cracked me up with his line about angst -- a perfect definition of the word, and nice poker-faced delivery. I did think the playwright could have done without the last scene. It made the ending a bit lackluster, while the scene before it concluded with a real punch. Otherwise, bravo to the cast, crew and theatre Q! Collapse

        What an absolutely hilarious, touching show! We laughed until we cried. The cast members - Katie Anderson, Matthew Lowe, and Annamarie MacLeod - are each outstanding in their roles. Believe us, you don't want to miss Annamarie's peanut butter and jelly scene!!! Get your tickets now, because the theatre is tiny. Congrats, theatreQ, for an outstanding show! Collapse
